This company was beyond unorganized and behind the times of communications. For conference calls, we were on a group phone call of 30+ people (This was when zoom was already known and used everywhere). I ended up not staying for more than a month after work started due to the lack of functioning.
Advice
Look for other jobs and review places' reputations before applying because they are interesting.
